The remarkable thing that bothers the
intricate labyrinths of diplomatic wis
dom is, that in the midst of the fishing
season the great fisheries international
difficulty is not heard of. The enterpris-
ing New Highlander is hooking the sue
culent cod and light capering mackerel
to his hearts content, the fishing banks
are crowded with piscatorial shippers in
schooners and sloops, the good flsh-wile
at home in Gloucester is gay with all
the hope of a flood-tide of good luck,
while the buxom daughters disport them
selves as striped mermaids in the surf,
only rcgretting that there are no beauN ;
and so the great question is saltcd down
until winter, when, of course, il will be
brought out again, corncd like the
mackerel, and put on the table.

A TEXAS SOLDIER.

! What n Washington Paper Says of One of
the San Antonio Boys.
The Washington Herald contains the
following gossip about one of the visit
ing Texas soldiers at the national drill
Rataplan, rataplan, rataplan, plan,
plan! You've heard it alI the week past
from drum corps after drum corps, and
the endless din will keep up in your ears
for weeks to come. But it is not an I'M
pleasant sound IN these piping times of
peace. Perhaps it would be better to say
cigarette times, for the lads we've had
with US seem to esCheW pipes. HoWs
ever, this is not the place, nor mine the
province, to write up the national drtd
All | desire in this connection is to mSke
record of the facts relating to q certain
sentry on duty in the camp. Sc
belonged to the San Antonf6
Rifles. He was as handsome
as picture, neat, natty, trim-buiIt,
jaunty youngster, about twenty years Of
age. lie was on guard at the foot of the
company street. Half q dozen women
were looking at him with evideR& adTnira-
tion, and dozen young girls Uttered and
and twittered and giggIed,- II they didn't
ogle as they passed by. y admired him
myself ana his appearaaCe recalled the
scenes OF more than quarter of a cen
tury ago, when l sawWou, Mr.tEditor,
and many another one h0Iatlng guard,
either as officer or enlisted man. But my
San Antonio friend was walking a plank,
three planks in fact, laid the length of
his beat. | went close to aim and exam
ined him fore and aft with curiosity
born of the "reminiscences his presence in
voked, dreams of the past, and wonder
ing, you know, if l, myself, had ever be-
haved or looked that way, away back in
'6l-5. He carried his musket at ease and
tramped to and fro over the planks with
the grace of dancing master. His high
arChed insteps were covered with deli
cately tinted silk stockings and his very
small and Well-shaped feet were encased
in highly polished, high-heeled, patent
leather slippers. Hence the planks, you
see, for if he had stepped of them and
done guard duty like real oIG-time SOL
der he would have ruined his very pretty
foot-gear.
For all that, l have no doubt my young
friend would, on occasion, prove 20 be
good soldier, warrior brave and true.
The dandies, the dudes, and the lah-de-
dab fellows we had in the army, before
this San Antonio sprig was born, were
not only good enough food for powder,
but frequently proved to be the bravest
amongst the brave, and won their Shout
der straps, despite the drawback of silk
stockings and patent leather slippers. In
fact, though, all the fancy filings disap-
peared in those old times after the first
hard march. The "boys" soon learned
the difference between playing soldier
and the actual demonstration.

a young man twenty years of age pur-
chased suburban house and lot in Sioux
City. He went out to look at the lot. He
halted on his journey to get married.
When he reached the property he found
cosy little home for his wife and family,
the only event to mar the pleasure of the
trip being the death of his little grand
daughter, who died from exhaustion.
Two men became engaged in q quarrel
over the ownership of an option of five
minutes on piece of Duluth property.
While they were qusrreling the option
expired and a poor bootOlack made the
purchase. In the evening the bootblack
sold the property and after making ar
engagements to build an elevated railroad
and construct railroad bridge over Lake
Superior, he lent the men bail money to
get them out Of Jail. We publish this to
show the folly Of qusrreling and the value
of time.

This was the querE, sprung on GA

more or less, yesterday, to which he re-
turned the equally monotonous reply
"None at an."} No arrests have been
made, and 10 clews discovered,
so far as could be learned
1t is great pity about
the latter. II some kindly disposed per-
son would only furnish even one clew or
q piece of CleW, there might be some
hope of running the rascals down. There
were plenty of men who thought they had
clews shortly after the deed, but they
turned out to. be only limitations
and were no good. A stronge hope
was felt that Mrs. Wiley might take
a notion te talk and give the whole gang
away, by those who entertained the the
DRY that this daUntless dame was one Of
the freeboOters. But she was mad be-
cause General Cabell insisted on taking
her back to Dallas and thence TO Chester,
H., to sOjourn for the next three years
as q guest of the government, and conse-
quentIy wrapped herself up in moody
silence.
The plain truth is that the robbers have
got away, and their capture is now very
problematical affair. 1t may be thai if
Governor Ross offers'a large reward en-
incentive will ha.furnished TO create a
search by detectives. At present the ont
look for capturing them is not in the

A Sensible Officer.
TppnEa Coo1 n,oprao1tI

An army officer who has stayed for
many years in the Indian Territory, and
who, from experience and o observation, is
capable of forming correct conclusion,
says that he should think the Indians
would be better clothed and fed and they
would undoubtedly be civilized much
more quickly by permitting the entrance
of whites in the Territory. 1t would de
stroy the tribal relations, and there can
never be any approach to civilizing the
a0origine as long as he is allowed to
hold his pow-wow and sun dances. 1t
would be vast benefit to the Indians
themselves, to say nothing of the gain to
the government in the revenues that
would accrue, and the wealth that would
in little time be made in that splendid
country.

Harvesting Time.

The farmers of Tarrant county are q
busy class OF men right now. Wheat
cutting is the order OF the day on every
farm. Opinions as to the average yield
over the coEnty range from seven to flf-
teen bushels per acre. Perhaps ten
bushels is more nearly correct, though
on good many farms as high as twenty
bushels will be raised. Oats were IN
doubtedly badly injured by the drouth,
but the outlook for immense crops of
corn and cotton was never finer.
